I am a new javascript programmer. I am trying to make a visualization that draws circles based on categories ("basically a single category on every circle"). My issue is that my code only prints one circle, with all categories on top of each other.
<script>
var width = 600;
var height = 600;
var data = d3.json("/data", function(error, data){
console.log(data)
// Make SVG container
var svgContainer = d3.select("body")
.append("svg")
.attr("width", width)
.attr("height", height);
var elem = svgContainer.selectAll("div")
.data(data);
var elemEnter = elem.enter()
.append("g")
var circles = elemEnter.append("circle")
.attr("cx", 100)
.attr("cy", 100)
.attr("r",80)
.style("fill", "blue")
elemEnter.append("text")
.attr("dy", function(d){
return d.SkillProficiencyId +80;
}).attr("dx",function(d){ return d.SkillProficiencyId-1;})
.text(function(d){return d.CategoryName});
});
</script>
> Sample of my Data
(18) [{…}, {…}, {…}, {…}, {…}, {…}, {…}, {…}, {…}, {…}, {…}, {…}, {…}, {…}, {…}, {…}, {…}, {…}]
0:
EmployeeId: 11111
AdUserName: null
FirstName: "ABC"
LastName: "DEF"
SkillId: 2346
CategoryName: "Adaptive Security Architecture"
SkillProficiencyId: 1
SkillProficiencyLevel: "Beginner"
__proto__: Object
1: {EmployeeId: 11111, AdUserName: null, FirstNam...
2: {EmployeeId: 11111, AdUserName: null, FirstName....
I created a example with circles dynamically created, with text centered inside.

Demo:
The JS code: [Edited *]
var width = 600;
var height = 600;
// Place your JSON here.
var data = [
{ CategoryName: 'Adaptive Security', SkillProficiencyId: 1 },
{ CategoryName: 'Programmer', SkillProficiencyId: 2 },
{ CategoryName: 'Coffee Drinker', SkillProficiencyId: 3 }
];
/*
This 'cxBase' will be multiplied by element's index, and sum with offset.
So for 3 elements, cx = 0, 200, 400 ...
All these values changeable by this vars.
*/
const cxBase = 200;
const cxOffset = 100;
console.log(data);
// Make SVG container
var svgContainer = d3.select("body")
.append("svg")
.attr("width", width)
.attr("height", height);
// This function will iterate your data
data.map(function(props, index) {
var cx = cxBase * (index) + cxOffset; // Here CX is calculated
var elem = svgContainer.selectAll("div").data(data);
var elemEnter = elem.enter()
.append("g")
var circles = elemEnter.append("circle")
.attr("cx", cx)
.attr("cy", 100)
.attr("r", 80)
.style("fill", "blue");
elemEnter
.append("text")
.style("fill", "white")
.attr("dy", function(d){
return 105;
})
.attr("dx",function(d){
return cx - (props.CategoryName.length * 3.5);
})
.text(function (d) {
return props.CategoryName
});
});
Edit:
/*

const cxBase = 200;
const cxOffset = 100;
